I've had learner feedback that the scroll bar to scroll down the screen goes away unless your mouse is on the screen. This means they are often disorientated as when they don't see the scroll bar they assume there is nothing to scroll down to.
The scroll bar should always display if there is a need, and not show at all if there is not a need. The colour should also have enough contrast for accessibility reasons.

Advanced VR Goggle Support
There are currently only two models of VR goggles with support (Samsung Gear VR + Google Daydream). Some of these models are difficult to obtain in Germany and only support certain smartphone brands or (sometimes outdated) models. For the educational context (360° tour, university library) and thus an extended use in new training formats, we would urgently like to see a broader support of several VR goggles models, so that the 360° environment in VR can also be used with several, especially newer smartphone models and independent of specific brands.

Combi characters not accepted anywhere
In previous versions this was a limitation for international users with a non-US keyboard only in widgets/learning interactions. But now it is the case for all text and this really bad. A combi character is where you need to use two keys to get the result, which is the case for most non-US keyboards needing a much larger set of characters. One example in Dutch: when two identical characters are in sequence but need to be pronounced both separately we need to put two points at its top (similar to the umlaut in German): 'creëren' has them on the second…

Combination characters in CSV replaced by Chinese characters
Dutch, like many other European languages has some combination characters. When I have the word 'creëren' in een CSV file, the two characters 'eë' after import are replaced by one chinese character. Too bad that I can't add a screenshot. I used Gill Sans as font. I am able to delete the chinese character, but there is no way to have the second ë with the double points on top appearing in any answer. This is a real important bug!

Confusing Error log after CSV import
Since there is no longer an Advanced Interaction panel to check the total score possible, I use the SUM functionality of Excel to calculate the total score in the score column. I had 7 questions, an empty line and than the sum. When importing the CSV both the empty line and the sum line are considered to be uncomplete questions and you get an error log with a lot of errors, whereas this is not important at all. It is nice that you can override the errors and import. However I imagine that this can be confusing. Not a game…

TRUE/FALSE translation in CSV not imported
I try to localise a quiz, and replaced TRUE/FALSE by its Dutch version, sometimes 'WAAR/ONWAAR' or JA/NEE'. However after import to a project, the default TRUE/FALSE replaces the translation. This is a bug. Even for English versions it is sometimes better to have other terms than TRUE/FALSE, depending on the question.

report for quiz settings
Recommend a report that shows all of the interactions that are set to 'include in quiz'.
I'm using Captivate 12.3, and I accidentally clicked on some text boxes to 'include in quiz.' It was a lengthy process to click every single text box and button in my project to find the two random text boxes in my quiz totals.

Icon on Carousel widget needs more customization and has bugs
The carousel widget allows you to change the arrow icon shape, but it does not have all of the customization that the svg icons typically have (such as in the buttons). For instance, I wanted to test out something other than an arrow, but when I went back to the arrow, I couldn't flip it. This meant that my arrow was pointed in the wrong direction. I could not fix it without deleting the whole carousel and starting over. Additionally, my client wanted the button much bigger, but that is not possible.
Additionally, I tried to use my own svg…

Export Captions: add slide number and/or label
The exported Word document has become even longer than in older versions due to all the multistate objects. The IDs in the first two columns have never made sense to me but in previous versions the last column indicated the slide number. Please add at least that number or if possible also the slide label. It is almost impossible at this moment to find specific items. The possibiliy to hide the superfluous states for buttons would be a great improvement as well. The document at this moment is not very friendly for localisation, which took many steps backwards also for…

User manual to be updated
Some confusing sentences:
At the start 'Launch Preferences' I see "On the toolbar, select Adobe Captivate > Preferences".. A menu is not a toolbar, and for WIndows users (still the majority) you find it under Edit, Preferences. BTW I logged the bug that the shortcut key is not working on an AZERTY keyboard, while the former SHIFT-F8 worked perfectly.
General Preferences, Default locations. It is no longer 'Publish at' but 'Location'. Due to the confusion for many users and problems in the past, a warning message should appear to avoid using the same folder for both and about not using…
